Just want to know if the stickers come off cleanly without leaving residue. Only having had Mac notebooks the past few years I'm not used to all these stickers! There are big Sony stickers on each side of the trackpad, these I want to remove for sure. Has anyone also removed the Intel and Nvidia stickers for a perfectly clean palm rest?
-
i removed the 2 big stickers and they did come off very cleanly
the others = haven't removed them -
-
Even the big stickers left residue? That's not cool. -
i took them all off, and had to do no scrubbing. trick is to peel not rip. there will still be a little residue. But it can easily be removed with a damp cloth.
-
I took off all the stickers i.e. win XP, nvidia and intel. All with just my fingernail. No glue residues at all.
Once you get under, just peel them gently, then tap a couple of times with the sticker to get rid of glue pieces... -
I was thinking about getting rid of the intels and nvidia, but left them. Now that I see others have done it, I will definitively do it to mine.

just tried taking of "vaio official warranty" sticker off~
no residues ^-^ -
I've removed the two big stickers so far, I used a normal hair dryer. Just aim it at the stickers for a couple of seconds (and keep your hand right next to the sticker, if the notebook surface gets more than hand warm, you're entering dangerous territory). Then you can just remove them in one go, they won't leave any residue or anything.

there was no damage when i scrubbed it off. it looks great and i did peal. i know the hair drier trick but on a hot computer that seems dangerous

You can get a liquid spray to remove gum, glue, and bugs from autoparts store. Don't spray it to your computer though the mist to the screen or other part of your computers might discolor it. Spray the thing to the scrubber first then apply it to the glue

The way I see it, the only thing that could actually have been damaged would be capacitors, but I assume it was too short for that.
